WHAT DOES A MOVIE PRODUCER DO ANYWAY?
According to the official definition, a producer oversees a project from its initial concept to its final cut, managing financing, production, and even marketing and distribution. They ensure the project stays within budget and on schedule.

Is it truly as hazardous and misunderstood as it seems?
